Jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs |

The fact that the electorate did exactly what they shouldn't have to try and secure jobs and job safety, that was what they were trying to do when they "threw the bums out". This wasn't a mandate for compromise, it was a demand for help. Unfortunately, the people are too divided and frankly, too stupid, to get their message across. Those inside the beltway are determined not to hear the right message because it's inconvenient, and frankly, not their real agenda.

we can't hear you," is the reply from inside the Beltway. Why would they care about jobs for us little people when there are rich people in dire need of tax cuts?
You are right, of course. People are desperate for work.

3. Well, at least one politician understands what the election was about |
|
But Bernie Sanders is definitely smart and he listens outside the beltway.

8. Yes, he's like us Americans who can see the forest for the trees. |

Those inside the beltway, don't care if we see the forest so long as we see their pink elephants.

No, not depressed (though Goddess knows how I'm not!) just a nightshifter. See y'all on the flipside.

10. We don't need jobs, we are all going to get trickled on. |
|
Republicans guarantee if we give everything to the rich they will trickle a tiny bit back to us and then we will be set for life. :shrug:
